Womanopoly - Musiq[00:00:00]
Yo listen I met this girl on Baltic Ave[00:00:26]
And you can tell how she steps on Boardwalk[00:00:30]
She was from Park Place[00:00:33]
I asked what she was doing on this side of town[00:00:34]
She said she had some taxes to pay[00:00:37]
I figured I'd take a chance and advance to go[00:00:40]
And find out more about her[00:00:43]
'Cause there's more to know than the ways she sways[00:00:44]
And the way that she wears her clothes[00:00:47]
Or the way that she plays this game so cold[00:00:49]
She said she came up rough[00:00:53]
And the one income household was not enough[00:00:56]
There be nights she'd go to sleep cold and hungry[00:01:00]
'Cause her mom was always short on food and money[00:01:03]
See people used to joke a lot[00:01:06]
And tease her 'bout her clothes not bein' in style[00:01:08]
Dressed in dingy skirts and dirty sneakers[00:01:13]
From the finest second hand down on Oriental Ave[00:01:15]
But now look at her she got this game on lock[00:01:19]
Anything that she ever wanted now she got it[00:01:25]
And I gotta say I'm so proud to see[00:01:31]
That someone like her is in control womanopoly[00:01:37]
Once she graduated Jr High[00:01:44]
She started working overtime[00:01:47]
Scrubbing floors or working on assembly lines[00:01:49]
Just so she could help her mother out[00:01:52]
And after college they moved into Marvin's Garden[00:01:56]
And she got a job working at the city water department[00:01:59]
To save enough cash[00:02:03]
To move into Community Chest condos on Pennsylvania Ave[00:02:04]
She fell in love with this dude name Ray[00:02:09]
Who was a small time hustler form St Charles' Place[00:02:11]
And he was known for always bein' in and out of trouble[00:02:15]
But the problem was that he was never on her level[00:02:18]
She argued with her mom about Ray's work[00:02:22]
Till he got sent up state on the same say that she gave birth[00:02:24]
But see the baby never made it[00:02:28]
It drove her nearly crazy and she couldn't take[00:02:30]
But now look at her she got this game on lock[00:02:34]
Anything that she ever wanted now she got it[00:02:41]
And I gotta say I'm so proud to see[00:02:47]
That someone like her is in control womanopoly[00:02:53]
Listen see where she came from[00:02:59]
Many people find it hard just to hang on[00:03:03]
You often find them in the same place complaining[00:03:06]
Instead of finding a better way of maintaining[00:03:09]
She could have balled up and cry[00:03:12]
Wish that she would die and just gave up on trying[00:03:14]
Instead she grind from the bottom just to make it to the bottom[00:03:18]
Now she's on top and she's flying[00:03:22]
But now look at her she got this game on lock[00:03:25]
Anything that she ever wanted[00:03:31]
Now she got it and I gotta say I'm so proud to see[00:03:36]
That someone like her is in control womanopoly[00:03:44]
But now look at her she got this game on lock[00:03:50]
Anything that she ever wanted[00:03:57]
Now she got it and I gotta say I'm so proud to see[00:04:01]
That someone like her is in control womanopoly[00:04:09]
